Wishing Stairs is an intriguing blend of horror and folklore, really digging into the dark side of desire.

The pacing has a subtle build-up, which enhances the tension as the characters grapple with the consequences of their desires. The atmosphere is thick with dread, capturing the anxieties of adolescence and the pressures of school life. What stands out are the practical effects used to depict the horrific manifestations of wishes; they’re visceral without being over-the-top. The performances, especially from the young cast, carry a rawness that adds authenticity to the horror. It’s a film that lingers and makes you think about what you really wish for.
